I wonder how comparable this is to the revamped notifications in iOS 5? Because the experience looks pretty good.

I love how you don't have to switch out of the application to respond to the notification.

What revamped notifications in iOS 5?

How usable and stable is this? I do use a jailbroken iPhone (for LockInfo) but am gun shy trying any other app that messes with the system.

I've been using it for about two weeks now, and while I don't like to tweak my iPhone (4) too often, this is a really nice tweak. It's set to not show the annoying, interfering blue notification popups while my phone is unlocked/being used, and the "Recent notifications" list (which I have set to be pulled down from the status bar, like in Android) works really well.

I'm generally not a fan of Android's UI but I think it's one place where they've nailed it.

it has a few problems with lockinfo, in the lock screen because sometimes it overlaps notifications. it's a matter of changing some lockinfo settings anyway.

a part from that i would say it's very good. it lacks some important configurations but the overall experience is very well integrated.

i had no problems so far!

btw... the system to reply to sms messages with only a tap in the notification is a godsend for me.
